The revelations St. Joseph gives about himself are what drew me to the messages of Our Lady of America, (that and the teachings of the Divine Indwelling).
So I'm very excited to share what was revealed. These revelations have made me love Joseph even more than I already did (and I have loved him greatly - as you can see in what I've written previously about him).
I've wanted to share them for months, but because the messages of Our Lady of America are so vast and so profound, it's taken me a long time to bring the revelations of St. Joseph together and (I pray) do justice to them.
Below are summarized versions of St. Joseph's main revelations (emphases mine).
As part of the apparitions of Our Lady of America, St. Joseph shares things we have never known about him. Because the Church has said very little regarding him - for he is the silent man of Scripture - for not a single word of his was ever recorded.
So, it is especially beautiful to hear him speak in these revelations.
Nothing he says is contrary to Sacred Teaching - but instead sheds light on what many theologians have surmised through the centuries regarding Jesus' earthly father and Mary's most chaste spouse.
I hope these revelations help you fall deeply in love with him. I hope that as you come to know more about him, you begin to turn to him ever more for help, for protection and for miracles of grace through his most powerful prayers.
He is the protector of the Holy Church, so as we read these let us turn to him to help protect the Church from her own sins. May he aid her in being swept clean of all evil, so that our beloved and Holy Church can become ever more radiant in love and virtue -- completely filled with the Divine Indwelling of God as our Heavenly Father intends.
I pray that you join me in asking for his intercession for our country and for the U.S. Bishops to heed the Our Lady of America's desires and bring her statue into the National Basilica in D.C. - reminiscent of David processing the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord into Jerusalem, which brought untold grace upon the nation of Israel.
See this for more information: We Need Divine Intervention to Save Our Church and Our Nation!
Please, also, join me in asking for his prayers for the Pope and all bishops and cardinals in the hierarchy of the Church to be filled with every grace and with unbounding Love, Courage, Wisdom and Truth, in order to faithfully fulfill their duties to our Most Holy God and to each of us, His holy people.
He is the protector of the family, so we also ask for him to pray for each of our families, our marriages and our children --
for all who are most in need of our prayers and who are the furthest from God --
and that each of us be aided in our conversions to God.
We ask him, also, to help bring peace to the world, for these revelations reveal he has a part to play in that -
as well as for Jesus and Mary's plans to be realized and for the Triumph of the Sacred and Immaculate Hearts to come soon - (which will include St. Joseph's heart likewise triumphing).
Lastly, I pray with St. Joseph that these revelations be a great grace to you:
"On March 11, 1958,
Our Lady said to me:
“St. Joseph will come on
the eve of his feast. Prepare yourself well. There will be a special message.
My holy spouse has an important part to
play in bringing peace to the world.”
St. Joseph came as was
promised and these are the words he spoke at this time:
“Kneel down, my daughter,
for
what you will hear and what you will
write will bring countless souls to a new way of life.
Through you, small one,
the Trinity desires to make known to souls
Its desire to be adored, honored, and loved within the kingdom, the interior
kingdom of their hearts.
“I bring to souls the purity of my life and the obedience that
crowned it.
1. ALL FATHERHOOD IS FROM GOD. IT MUST TAKE ONCE AGAIN ITS RIGHTFUL PLACE AMONG MEN.
The Heavenly Father has
blessed al fatherhood through me and continues to do so till the end of time.
My fatherhood extends to
all God’s children – and together with Mary we watch over you with great love
and care.
“Fathers must come to
me, small one, to learn obedience to authority: to the Church always, as
the mouthpiece of God, to the laws of the country in which they live, insofar
as these do not go against God and their neighbor.
“Let fathers also
imitate my great purity of life and the deep respect I held for my Immaculate
Spouse. Let them be an example to their children and fellow-men, never
willfully doing anything that would cause scandal among God’s people.
“Fatherhood is from
God, and it must take once again its rightful place among men.”
2. WE LEARN TRUE UNION WITH THE DIVINE WILL THROUGH ST. JOSEPH:
"Fathers must imitate me in
my obedience and purity: perfect obedience to the Divine Will and great purity
of life and deep respect for your spouse. Be an example to your children and
fellowmen.
Joseph
appeared with his flaming heart lying on a cross:
The cross, my little one,
upon which my heart rests is the cross of the passion, which was ever present
before me, causing me intense suffering.
I desire souls to come to my heart
that they may learn true union with the Divine Will."
3. “[JOSEPH] SHOULD BE HONORED WHOM THE KING DESIRES TO HONOR.”
"God desires a Feast Day to
honor my fatherhood – so that in my fatherhood all fatherhood might be blessed
Learn from the Little Home
of Nazareth – I was king. I sheltered, provided for and protected the Prince of
Peace and the Queen of Heaven.
I received deepest love and
reverence from them, for they saw God the Father in me, in whose place I took
over them.
The head of the family must
be loved obeyed and respected and must be a true father and protector to those
under his care.
In honoring my fatherhood,
you honor Jesus and Mary. The Trinity has placed the peace of the world into
our keeping. You obtain peace from God
by imitating the Holy Family and the virtues we practiced."
3. ST. JOSEPH IS THE PROTECTOR OF THE HOLY FATHER AND OF THE CHURCH - THE MYSTICAL BODY OF THE SON ON EARTH.
(St. Joseph revealed he
saved Pope Pius XII from death at the hands of his enemies during the war
(during WWII).
"...As God chose me to be the special guardian of his Son, so has He chosen me as the special guardian of him who in Christ’s Name is head of the Mystical Body of that same Son on earth.
My special protection of the Holy Father and the Church should he made known to him. God wishes to make this known to him that he may receive thereby renewed consolation and encouragement.
During the war, little daughter, it was I who saved him from death at the hands of his enemies.
Continually I watch over him and the Church, and I desire this to be acknowledged for the greater glory of God and the good of souls."
4. ST. JOSEPH DESIRES DEVOTION BE GIVEN TO HIM ON THE FIRST WEDNESDAYS OF THE MONTH.
His requests are similar
to those of Our Lady's First Saturday devotion that was revealed at Fatima. The Father asks us to offer special love and honor to the hearts of Jesus, Mary and Joseph in reparation for the sins committed against them and to bring peace to the
world.
“I am the protector of the
Church and the home, as I was the protector of Christ and his Mother while I
lived upon earth. Jesus and Mary desire that my pure heart, so long hidden and
unknown, be now honored in a special way.
Let my children
honor my most pure heart in a special manner on the First Wednesday of
the month by reciting the Joyful Mysteries of the Rosary in memory of my life
with Jesus and Mary and the love I bore them, the sorrow I suffered with them. Let them receive Holy Communion in union with the love with which I received
the Savior for the first time and each time I held Him in my arms.
Those who honor me in this way will be
consoled by my presence at their death, and I myself will conduct them safely
into the presence of Jesus and Mary."
5. JOSEPH WAS MADE IMMACULATE IN THE WOMB AND REMAINED SINLESS DURING HIS LIFETIME.
This is a unique privilege
of God that is not unheard of in Scripture: remember John the Baptist. This isn't the same grace of Mary in her immaculate conception, but a grace given after his conception:
In early October, 1956
About
a week after Our Lady’s first appearance, Sister Mildred wrote "St. Joseph, though I did not see him
at this time, spoke to me the following words:
“It is true my daughter, that
immediately after my conception,
I was, through the future merits of Jesus
and
because of my exceptional role
of future Virgin-Father,
cleansed from the stain
of original sin.
I was from that moment confirmed in
grace and never had the slightest stain on my soul. This is my unique privilege
among men.
My pure heart also was from the
first moment of existence inflamed with love for God. Immediately, at the
moment when my soul was cleansed from original sin, grace was infused into it
in such abundance that, excluding my holy spouse, I surpassed the holiness of
the highest angel in the angelic choir."
6. JOSEPH IS CO-REDEMPTOR WITH JESUS AND MARY AS HE FOREKNEW, PARTICIPATED, SUFFERED AND HAD COMPASSION FOR THE SUFFERINGS OF JESUS AND MARY.
"My heart suffered with the
Hearts of Jesus and Mary. Mine was a silent suffering, for it was my special
vocation to hide and shield, as long as God willed, the Virgin Mother and Son
from the malice and hatred of men.
The most painful of my sorrows was that I
knew beforehand of their passion, yet would not be there to console them. Their
future suffering was ever present to me and became my daily cross.
I became, in
union with my holy spouse, co-redemptor of the human race. Through compassion for
the sufferings of Jesus and Mary, I cooperated, as no other, in the salvation
of the world.”
7. GOD CHOSE HIM TO BE THE VIRGIN-FATHER OF HIS SON FROM ALL ETERNITY.
"The privilege of being
chosen by God to be the Virgin-Father of His Son was mine alone, and no honor,
excluding that bestowed upon my Holy Spouse, was ever, or will ever, be as
sublime or as high as this."
8. WE ARE CALLED TO IMITATE THE HOLY FAMILY – THE EARTHLY PARADISE AND DWELLING OF THE INDWELLING TRINITY FOR THIS is what God intends for all families.
On November 8, 1954, a short time after the visit of
the Angel of Peace, Our Lady spoke to me in these words:
"It is the wish of my Son that fathers and
mothers strive to imitate me and my chaste spouse in our holy life at Nazareth.
We practiced the simple virtues of family life, Jesus our Son being the center
of all our love and activity. The Holy Trinity dwelt with us in a manner far
surpassing anything that can ever be imagined.
For ours was the earthly
paradise where once again God walked among men.
As in our little home no sin was to be found,
so it is the wish of the Heart of my Son and my Immaculate Heart that sin should, as far as possible, be unheard
of in the homes of our children.
The
Divine Trinity will dwell in your midst only if you are faithful in
practicing the virtues of our life at Nazareth."
9. ONLY IN IMITATING THE HOLY FAMILY WILL WE FIND PEACE:
"…[If you are faithful in practicing the virtues of
the Holy Family] Then, you also, my
children, you also will become another paradise. God will then walk among you
and you will have peace.
The imitation
of the Holy Family, my child, of the virtues we practiced in our little
home at Nazareth is the way for all souls to [find] that peace which comes from
God alone and which none other can give.”
God wishes
me to be honored in union with Jesus and Mary to obtain peace among men and
nations.
I
need your help to bring peace into the world. Do not disappoint me."
10.THREE VISIONS OF ST. JOSEPH
[When he finished speaking,
on the eve of his feast day: March 18, 1958]:
… I saw his most pure heart. It seemed to be lying on a cross which was of
brown color. It appeared to me that at the top of the heart, in the midst of
the flames pouring out, was a pure white lily. Then I heard these words:
“Behold
this pure heart so pleasing to Him who made it.”
St. Joseph then continued:
“The
cross, my little one, upon which my heart rests is the cross of the passion,
which was ever present before me, causing me intense suffering.
“I
desire souls to come to my heart that they may learn true union with the divine
will.
“It is enough, my child; I will come
again tomorrow. Then I will make known to you how God wishes me to be honored in union with Jesus and Mary to obtain
peace among men and nations.”
March 19, 1958 Vision of St. Joseph:
He seemed suspended, as it
were, a short distance above what had the appearance of a large globe with
clouds moving about it. His head was slightly raised, the eyes gazing upward as
if in ecstasy. The hands were in a position similar to that of the priest during
the celebration of Holy Mass, only they extended upward somewhat more. The
color of his hair as also of his rather small and slightly forked beard seemed
a very dark brown. His eyes resembled in color the hair and beard. He was
clothed in a white robe that reached to his ankles. Over this he wore a sort of
cloak which did not come together at the throat, but covering the shoulders and
draped gracefully over each arm, reached to the hem of the robe.
His appearance, though
quite youthful, gave at the same time the impression of rare maturity combined
with great strength. He seemed a bit taller than medium height. The lines of
his face appeared strong and purposeful, softened somewhat by a gentle
serenity. I also saw his most pure heart at this time. Moreover, I saw the Holy
Spirit in the form of a dove hovering above his head.
Standing sideways, facing
each other, were two angels, one on the
right, the other on the left. Each carried what appeared to be a small
pillow in a satin covering, the pillow on
the right bearing a gold crown, the one on the left, a gold scepter. The angels
were all white, even their faces and hair. It was a beautiful whiteness that
reminded me of the stainlessness of heaven.
Then I heard these words: “Thus should he be honored whom
the King desires to honor.”
3. “I will come again, little child
of my most pure heart. Until then, continue in patience and humility, which is
so pleasing to God.”
March
30, 1958: As St. Joseph had promised, Jesus and Mary also came on
March 30. Jesus had the appearance of a boy about fifteen or sixteen year old.
He spoke to me first. It was about the sanctification of the family and other
matters. He said it would not be required of me to write it at this time, as He
would ask this of me at a later date. Our Lady and St. Joseph also spoke to me
concerning the same subject and also about the Divine
Indwelling.
Read below for the full revelations of St. Joseph, (when not shared already above):
ST. JOSEPH
On March 11, 1958,
Our Lady said
to me:
“St. Joseph will come on the eve of his feast. Prepare
yourself well. There will be a special message. My holy spouse has an important
part to play in bringing peace to the world.”
St. Joseph came as was promised [on the 19th], and these
are the words he spoke at this time:
“Kneel down, my daughter, for what you will hear and what you will write will bring countless souls
to a new way of life.
“Through you, small one, the Trinity desires to make known
to souls Its desire to be adored, honored, and loved within the kingdom, the
interior kingdom of their hearts.
“I bring to souls the purity
of my life and the obedience that crowned it.
“All fatherhood is
blest in me whom the Eternal Father chose as his representative on earth, the
Virgin-Father of his own divine Son. Through me the Heavenly Father has blessed
all fatherhood, and through me He continues and will continue to do so till the
end of time.
“My spiritual
fatherhood extends to all God’s children, and together with my Virgin Spouse I
watch over them with great love and solicitude.
“Fathers must come to
me, small one, to learn obedience to authority: to the Church always, as
the mouthpiece of God, to the laws of the country in which they live, insofar
as these do not go against God and their neighbor.
“Mine was perfect
obedience to the divine will, as it was shown and made known to me by the
Jewish law and religion. To be careless in this is most displeasing to God and
will be severely punished in the next world.
“Let fathers also
imitate my great purity of life and the deep respect I held for my Immaculate
Spouse. Let them be an example to their children and fellow-men, never
willfully doing anything that would cause scandal among God’s people.
“Fatherhood is from
God, and it must take once again its rightful place among men.”
As St. Joseph ceased speaking I saw his most pure heart. It seemed to be lying on a cross which was of
brown color. It appeared to me that at the top of the heart, in the midst of
the flames pouring out, was a pure white lily. Then I heard these words:
“Behold this pure
heart so pleasing to Him who made it.”
St. Joseph then continued:
“The cross, my little
one, upon which my heart rests is the cross of the passion, which was ever
present before me, causing me intense suffering.
“I desire souls to
come to my heart that they may learn true union with the divine will.
“It is enough, my child; I will come again tomorrow. Then I
will make known to you how God wishes me
to be honored in union with Jesus and Mary to obtain peace among men and
nations. Good night, my little one.”
On the evening of the next day,
March 19, 1958,
St. Joseph
again appeared to me as he had promised and addressed me in these words:
“My child, I desire a
day to be set aside to honor my fatherhood.
“The privilege of being chosen by God to be the
Virgin-Father of his Son was mine alone, and no honor, excluding that bestowed
upon my Holy Spouse, was ever, or will ever, be as sublime or as high as this.
“The Holy Trinity
desires thus to honor me that in my unique fatherhood all fatherhood might be
blessed.
“Dear child, I was king in the little home of Nazareth,
for I sheltered within it the Prince of Peace and the Queen of Heaven. To me
they looked for protection and sustenance, and I did not fail them.
“I received from them
the deepest love and reverence, for in me they saw Him whose place I took over
them.
“So the head of the
family must be loved, obeyed, and respected, and in return be a true father and
protector to those under his care.
“In honoring in a
special way my fatherhood, you also honor Jesus and Mary. The divine Trinity
has placed into our keeping the peace of the world.
“The imitation of the
Holy Family, my child, of the virtues we practiced in our little home at
Nazareth is the way for all souls to that peace which comes from God alone and
which none other can give”
Then suddenly, as he ceased speaking, I was favored with a
unique and marvelous vision of the glorious St. Joseph.
He seemed suspended, as it were, a short distance above
what had the appearance of a large globe with clouds moving about it. His head
was slightly raised, the eyes gazing upward as if in ecstasy. The hands were in
a position similar to that of the priest during the celebration of Holy Mass,
only they extended upward somewhat more.
The color of his hair as also of his rather small and
slightly forked beard seemed a very dark brown. His eyes resembled in color the
hair and beard. He was clothed in a white robe that reached to his ankles. Over
this he wore a sort of cloak which did not come together at the throat, but
covering the shoulders and draped gracefully over each arm, reached to the hem
of the robe. The cloak at times had, or seemed to have, the appearance of a
brown, sometimes a purple, hue, or perhaps a slight blending of the two. The
belt about his waist was of a gold color, as were his sandals.
His appearance, though quite youthful, gave at the same
time the impression of rare maturity combined with great strength. He seemed a
bit taller than medium height. The lines of his face appeared strong and
purposeful, softened somewhat by a gentle serenity. I also saw his most pure heart at this time, Moreover, I saw the Holy
Spirit in the form of a dove hovering above his head.
Standing sideways, facing each other, were two angels, one
on the right, the other on the left. Each carried what appeared to be a small
pillow in a satin covering, the pillow on the right bearing a gold crown, the one on the left, a gold
scepter. The angels were all white, ever their faces and hair. It was a
beautiful whiteness that reminded me of the stainlessness of heaven.
Then I heard these words:
“Thus should he be
honored whom the King desires to honor.”
When the vision ended, St. Joseph before taking leave
spoke to me in the following manner:
“The Holy Father need have no fear, for I have been
appointed his special protector. As God chose me to be the special guardian of
his Son, so has He chosen me as the special guardian of him who in Christ’s
Name is head of the Mystical Body of that same Son on earth.
“My special protection of the Holy Father and the Church
should he made known to him. God wishes to make this known to him that he may
receive thereby renewed consolation and encouragement.
“During the war, little daughter, it was I who saved him
from death at the hands of his enemies.
Continually I watch over him and the Church, and I desire
this to be acknowledged for the greater glory of God and the good of souls.
“Lovely child, precious to the heart of your spiritual
father, I will come again on the last Sunday of this month. Jesus and Mary will
come also in a special visit. Receive my blessing,”
As I knelt down to receive it I felt his hands on my head
and heard the words:
“May Jesus and Mary
through my hands bestow upon you eternal peace.”
March 30, 1958
As he had
promised, St. Joseph came again on March 30. His requests were similar to those
of Our Lady and the First Saturday. The Sacred Hearts of Jesus, Mary, and
Joseph have been chosen by the Most Holy Trinity to bring peace to the world;
hence, their request for special love and honor, also, in particular,
reparation and imitation.
These are the words of St. Joseph as recorded on March 30:
“I am the protector of the Church and the home, as I was the
protector of Christ and his Mother while I lived upon earth. Jesus and Mary
desire that my pure heart, so long hidden and unknown, be now honored in a
special way. Let my children honor my most pure heart in a special manner on
the First Wednesday of the month by reciting the Joyful Mysteries of the Rosary
in memory of my life with Jesus and Mary and the love I bore them, the sorrow I
suffered with them. Let them receive Holy Communion in union with the love with
which I received the Savior for the first time and each time I held Him in my
arms.
“Those who honor me
in this way will be consoled by my presence at their death, and I myself will
conduct them safely into the presence of Jesus and Mary.
“I will come again, little child of my most pure heart.
Until then, continue in patience and humility, which is so pleasing to God.”
As St. Joseph had promised, Jesus and Mary also came on
March 30. Jesus had the appearance of a boy about fifteen or sixteen year old.
He spoke to me first. It was about the sanctification of the family and other
matters. He said it would not be required of me to write it at this time, as He
would ask this of me at a later date. Our Lady and St. Joseph also spoke to me
concerning the same subject and also about the Divine
Indwelling.
